“Economic situation will further improve after investment comes to the country. Our government is providing facilities to industries besides providing ease of doing business to foreign investors. We are creating a viable environment for investors to get all facilities in the country.”
“I am happy over the commencement of tyre manufacturing in Pakistan as earlier it had come to the country through smuggling. Local manufacturing discourages imports and it is the present government’s policy to increase exports.”
Commenting over the bilateral ties with Beijing, the premier said that Pakistan’s relation with China is standing on its highest status which had not been witnessed in past. He added that Beijing leadership has shown willingness by itself to bring Chinese industry in Pakistan.
